«I read this in the hope that it would teach me everything I need to know so that one day I can become a racing driver although I think I may have left it too late...»

«Top class chauffeur, sublime broadcaster, ultimate party honey badger. These are the qualities I know and adore about JP. He taught me how to nail a hot lap around Rockingham and I've been in a speed jive ever since. Jason can burn the candle at both ends and in the middle yet still deliver the business.»
Suzi Perry, Fifth Gear
